Hi Everyone, sorry I am a bit late this week but I am down in Sydney, unfortunately not sailing thanks to Sydney weather, and yes I know the weather at home has been bright and Sunny and I am looking forward to being back for Sunday .

8.30am Sunday Juniors

With nice wind early while we were setting up I thought we were going to have a great early class finally with some wind but yes you guessed it it dropped by 8am, so it turned into a very slow start to the session. Finally though we started to get some wind and everyone finally got some actual sailing in rather than drifting around .

10.30am Sunday Juniors

With the wind settling in from the s/e it turned into perfect sailing weather with Kyle setting a long reaching course which Shaun and Jess absolutely smoked especially Jess with plenty of hiking out and smiles . The team in the Teras and Bics after some encouragement also started to really stretch out of their boats and enjoy the 8/10 knot winds . All in all it was a great morning .

Open Bic Racing

With Only Dan and Charlie at the start, it was basically Charlies day with good solid winds of 10/15 knots and a course set both in our channel and the main channel he relished the conditions and even Daniel was sailing well , he just improves every week .

Open Racing

With 11 boats at the start line it was a bit hectic so Charlie and Macca started at the boat end which proved very useful for both well until Macca capsized at A mark while bearing away then even though he managed to make up a lot of lost ground he just couldn't pip Peter. I have to say though the best racing was between Casey ( NEW BOAT ) and Pat, and if I hadn't intervened and sent her the wrong way I couldn't have picked who would win , sorry Casey I will shut up next time .

Additional Notes

Volunteers : We are looking for a few people to help at the bunnings sausage sizzle Saturday week so if you can help just let us know .

Sydney 32 : Last Saturday was day one of introduction to the Sydney 32 race yacht for our senior juniors you should have seen the excitement and nerves all in one as the learned how to rig the boat and went through safety again thanks Dave and Danielle for giving us this great opportunity .
